Unfortunately there is no easy way to do this in Android. There are lots of limitations on what can be done in Homescreen Widgets. There is actually a way (a hack), but it’s very messy and could lead to all sorts of knock on problems so I’m reluctant to implement it.

Hi
Can you give me more detailed information on how to customise my font. I want to use ST Kaiti. I found /Android/data/com.embermitre.dictroid/zh on my phone, but don’t know how to go from there. I found C:\Windows\Fonts\ST Kaiti on my C drive, but don’t know how to proceed from there. I don’t want to cause malfunctions in my Hanping Pro on the phone. Help

The first time you use the app, the dictionary data is downloaded. After that, an internet connection is not required to search the dictionary. If you were to purchase the Pro version having already installed the free version, then the Pro version would use the data you have already downloaded.

Hi
I read this, put /Android/data/com.embermitre.dictroid/zh and separately font/STKaiti on the F drive (which is my phone), but how do I choose this to replace the font supplied. I don’t know how to access it on the phone. I need precise instructions please

OK, on the F drive (the phone’s drive?) I can find F:\Android\data\com.embermitre.dictroid, with a subdirectory “zh” How do I add \fonts\STKaiti to this? If I click on folder “zh” within this I find folders labelled””audio, dicts, user,lists and now a file? (O) STKaiti True font file, which I put there from my PC. But I can’t get the font to open on my phone.

Fantastic It works! Thankyou for your straightforward replies. The STKaiti font is beautiful.
Two more questions – how do I go back to the default font, if I ever want to?
2. When I replaced my SD card with a 16 Gb, I first saved my HanPing lists on to my PC, but when I opened up the phone again, HanPing Pro re-installed and I lost my lists. How can I get them back and will this disturb my beautiful new STKaiti font?

1. To go back to the default font you simply need to remove the font kaiti file from that location. Alternatively, you could just rename the fonts folder to “fonts.old” or something like that

2. Hanping starred lists are stored in a file called “starred.db” which you can find in the “zh/user” folder. Basically, you need to somehow get that file from your old SD card (or PC if it is now there) to your new SD card in the same location.
